The Boston data set represent the housing values in Suburbs of Boston.
The Boston data frame has 506 rows and 14 columns.
This data frame contains the following columns:
crim = per capita crime rate by town
zn = proportion of residential land zoned for lots over 25,000 sq.ft
indus = proportion of non-retail business acres per town
chas = Charles River dummy variable (= 1 if tract bounds river; 0 otherwise)
nox = nitrogen oxides concentration (parts per 10 million)
rm = average number of rooms per dwelling
age = proportion of owner-occupied units built prior to 1940
dis = weighted mean of distances to five Boston employment centres
rad = index of accessibility to radial highways
tax = full-value property-tax rate per $10,000
ptratio = pupil-teacher ratio by town
black = 1000(Bk - 0.63)^2 where Bk is the proportion of blacks by town
lstat = lower status of the population (percent)
medv = median value of owner-occupied homes in $1000s
